COLLETON'S CLUB MAKERS Misses Fickllng and Varn and Mr. Risher may truly be csl^d Collt- tda'a Club Makers, for-they are en gaged in creating organizations of young folks for the betterment of tbe county, and of themsehtae. These arc not "social" clubs in' the strictest sense, although they are noteworthy for the sociM life they create over the county. They ace not purely "literary" clubs, though they are usually organized in the school room, and to be a good mem ber one must read and study. They are not "card” clubs, though the members have much tq with card* —score cards, eto^ They are nog "dancing" clubs, though at eertaiu seasons of the year the thembefo have to dance to keep ahead of the — | „ / _ ' , ■ grass, and the insect pests. These are the kinds of clubs so essential to, life, especially In time" of war. and few “scandaU" will ever result from membership in one of them It is reported that a girl who goes through a course in one or two of these clubsSmake a mighty accept able "head -oi the home.” and the •time is coming—yea, is here now — when the. club members will be - o 'X - eagerly qought after by the .level headed young man who wishes to get along * in this . world.

BRYAN Please allow me space in your paper td say that on account of con ditions caused by the war. I want to do what I can on my farm, and want to cut my time in my ofBce Mondays. Thursdays and Ssturdavs. and at home every night. I can at tend to the business of tbe office in one day each week if all would come ai» a certain day. I feel that everv ounce of energy ought to be used by everybody in the making of food stuffs wdiile this miserable war lasts, and l am going to do all I can and encourage others to greater activity. The government is very anxious about getting castor beans, grown. It needs them badly and offer good prices. I have been corresponding with Mr. T. S. Evans, of Hamlet, X. C.. and have got fzom him alt in- fnrmatlon about these beans,—anti will be glad to let any one who wants to plant know what Mr. Ev ans says. I sin actual^ afraid that if the people don’t wake up to realize our danger, .Germany might lick us. 'There are so many things that could happen to hurt our cause, but If we have plenty qf rations, and oil foe .our ^:r craft, our danger is lessened.' Tf Germany was to win she probably would put her heel on us. If we win we would extend *o p«f/a helping hand; so. It’s best for to lick. If we win we have got to work for it. All my spare tidi^ while on the farm I*, am plowing, haven't plowed any before for 3'i years. J v nm going to wqrk as never before until this war is, over. . X - J. E.
